Farewell To Love
By 3 viewsA stand taken knowing feelings, on all sides,
yet a stand taken, even right in your own eyes.
A love just thrown away, never to be seen again,
a friendship tossed out the door, what a true "friend".
My heart it cries and aches for you every single day,
screaming "Bring her back, please, just find a way".
Yet, the time has come to say farewell, your return nowhere in sight,
A love you lost, what gave you the right?
What gave you the right to lie, to throw my feelings to the very wind,
to constantly throw me away over and over again?
The pain, the agony, I’d never wish on any other one,
yet your insensitivity, whatever made me think you were "The One"?
Yet, you were, the very one, and my heart still knows it’s true,
the one tho who my very heart will remain true to.
Sadly, none other can walk in and ever take your place,
Always, remembering, looking back fondly on those days.
Those days alone, you and me, nothing said, just the presence of each other,
never wanting, never needing anything, a feeling like no other.
A bond we’ve had, yet thrown away, time and time again,
What a fine way to treat your "friend".
Whatever did I do so wrong to turn you against me?
Whatever did I do to you, can you not see?
Anything you asked, I gave, would have given my very all for your love
Yet, when it came down to it, my heart got the shove.
Selfish, the only word that I can think of that relates to how you are
thinking only of yourself, never the people you leave afar.
Carelessly throwing yourself away, looking forward, with no regrets,
you care only for yourself, not the people you forget.
Sadly, you will never see this, hear my true thoughts, feel my true pulse,
your actions made clear you think of yourself, not anyone else.
The time spent with you, was nothing but a waste,
The sacrifices made unappreciated, you threw away your taste.
You had a taste of love, chosing to throw it away instead,
your choice, careless as it may be, someday you will regret.
Who else would have gone and done the things I have for you?
The things I have given, done for your love, who knew?
Who knew that you would do what you went and did to me,
taking my heart, chewing it up and spitting it out, not caring to see.
Not seeing, nor caring what you’ve done, or will ever do again.
As I said, what a way to treat your "friend".
Farewell, my love, my heart will always remain in your hands, no matter how hard I try
I try daily to recover the loss, the love, but all I can do is sigh.
Sigh for the loss, for the love that was carelessly thrown away without a care,
knowing that you threw away the only one who would every truly be there.
